This paper briefly reviews some selected traits (leaf area, crown architecture, water-use efficiency and carbon isotope discrimination, water relations and root characteristics), which may be explored in breeding programmes to tolerance to drought stress in arabica and robusta coffee.

- Ecophysiology of coffee growth and production (2007, background): “…coffee trees receiving as little as 1.5% of full solar radiation (F.S. Matos and F.M. DaMatta, unpublished results), it may be suggested that canopy photosynthesis would be saturated at irradiances considerably higher than 600-700 µmol photon m-2 s-1 (see further discussion in DaMatta, 2004a).”
- Plant drought stress: effects, mechanisms and management (2011, unknown): “In field-grown clones of robusta co ff ee, leaf shedding in response to drought stress occurred sequentially from older to younger leaves, suggesting that the more drought-sensitive the clone, the greater the extent of leaf shedding (DaMatta, 2004).”
